Vintage Russian Monopoly Board Game (Monopoliya)

This is an authentic Russian version of the classic Parker Brothers board game, Monopoly (Монополия). The game components visible include a section of the playing board, several metal tokens, and a pair of dice. The board features Cyrillic text, with property names like 'Арбат' (Arbat) and 'Малая Бронная' (Malaya Bronnaya), reflecting famous Moscow locations. The 'GO' square is replaced with 'СТАРТ!' (Start) featuring a characteristic red arrow and the instruction to collect 200 rubles. The central logo features the iconic 'Rich Uncle Pennybags' character in a top hat against a red vertical banner. A notable detail is the inclusion of the Parker Brothers brand name written in both Russian and English script. The game is likely from the late 1980s or early 1990s, coinciding with the brand's official entry into the Soviet and post-Soviet markets. Components appear to be in good vintage condition, with minor edge wear on the board and authentic-looking die-cast metal playing pieces, including a classic automobile. The dice show slight yellowing, consistent with age. This specific edition is a significant cultural artifact from the era of Perestroika, marking a shift toward Western consumer goods in Eastern Europe.
